Manzana Postobón is preparing to face its third year in the Professional Continental level by strengthening its roster with fresh faces.

With the departure of one of its most successful talents, Sebastian Molano who is joining UAE Team Emirates in 2019, the Colombian team has been forced to bring other promising riders. Jhonatan Restrepo is one of the new names of the team.

The Colombian became a professional in Katusha-Alpecin in 2016 and achieved top-five results in one stage of the Vuelta a España and at the Vuelta al Pais Vasco, as well as in the general classifications of races like the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Race, the Vuelta a Murcia and the Gran Piemonte.

Spanish website Zikloland named other signings for the team. Daniel Jaramillo will make the move after three seasons in UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling and climber Carlos Quintero after one season in the continental Colombian team Orgullo Paisa.

Other names mentioned are Omar Mendoza· who will arrive from Team Medellin, Diego Ochoa who will move from EPM, and new talents like Bryan Gomez, Luis Carlos Chia and Nicolas Saenz.
